[Andre_Sostizzo]

Go to Start > Run > eventvwr.msc
Event Viewer opens
Windows Logs > Application, Security and System



Filter Current Log by Dates
Save All Event As...
 
Send the Application*.evtx, Security*.evtx and System*.evtx

Ensure to save the events as .evtx files, since this is the easier-to-use format. Thanks!
